Become your ideal client’s favourite personal brand to follow on LinkedIn
DOORS CURRENTLY CLOSED
Soft Launch Your LinkedIn is an interactive and hands-on six-week program that will give you the confidence + DIY skills to start posting on LinkedIn without becoming overwhelmed.
LET’S BE REAL:
YOU’RE SO OVER THE GUESSWORK ON LINKEDIN
✌️
SICK OF INSTAGRAM
You loved your corner of Instagram three years ago, but now it feels wildly overcrowded + noisy, and you dread having to try and keep up with an algorithm that’s demanding more video content.
💀
R.I.P. CREATIVITY
You’re a creative person by nature, but writing copy for LinkedIn feels alien and confusing - you’re not sure what good looks like there. What worked for you on Instagram doesn’t seem to land on LinkedIn.
🤷♀️
FLUFF FATIGUE
You love learning how to do things yourself, but there’s so much fluffy advice about LinkedIn out there, you’re not sure where to turn. It makes DIY’ing your personal brand feel confusing.
🤹
TIRED OF JUGGLING
You like the idea of having one clear focus, rather than desperately trying to juggle both a brand account and a personal page. You just aren’t clear on how to combine them so they actually make sense.
Who’s this program for?
-
You've avoided being known for one thing for so long because you're worried it means you'll miss out on opportunities. But you're ready to become the go-to in your industry and stand out from the rest. You want to be known for your approach and able to do more of the kind of work you love.
-
You’re spread so thin with too many low-ticket clients that you feel completely overwhelmed at the idea of marketing your business. It's time to double down on your LinkedIn personal brand so you can create less content than you were trying to on Instagram, while bringing in higher-ticket clients.
-
You've built a successful brand outside of LinkedIn. But you're in the process of expanding your offering - doing more public speaking, writing a book, creating a podcast - and you're ready to become a recognised industry thought leader.
You’re ready for…
Higher-ticket clients 💸 who you actually enjoy working with, on your own terms
More consistent leads you don’t have to spend hours cold-pitching 🧊 for
Invitations for paid speaking 🎤 engagements, podcasts and brand-building activities
After Soft Launch, you’ll be able to…
✍️
Confidently write strategic + engaging posts for LinkedIn
Recognise what ‘good’ looks like for LinkedIn + self-edit accordingly
️🔥
Develop a strategic, clear + actionable plan for your LinkedIn content
📅
Build a personal brand that people love to work with — without burnout
💭
🤝

Your Soft Launch Curriculum
EVERYTHING WE COVER: 6-WEEK SPRINT
-
In this module, get clear on where your personal brand fits in on LinkedIn. By defining a clear and compelling vision for your personal brand, you’ll reignite your passion and set a strategic path forward. We'll use our unique Common Thread Framework to get clear on who we're speaking to, what you have to say, how much of your personality to show up with, and where to find the 'common threads' between your work and personal life.
-
In this module, we get clearer on what the formula is for great, accessible content on LinkedIn. You'll learn how to trim back the confusing or unnecessary elements to your writing and develop focused, high-value content—with 'Focused Formatting' techniques—that clearly highlight your expertise, target audience, unique point of view and personality.
-
In this module, you'll highlight your unique point of view (POV) and credibility into your hooks to create a distinct and resonant personal brand. By leveraging strong, effective hooks, you'll increase the opportunity for your content to be discovered by your ideal client. This process ensures that you aren't shouting into the void with your posts—you're making your expertise known.
-
In this module, you'll learn about different types of series content to further develop your personal brand footprint within your industry. You'll expand your POV and create a playful, personal type of content that resonates with your ideal client and positions you as an expert. By strategically crafting series content, you'll ensure your personal brand's evolution and continued success.
-
In this module, you'll ensure that your personal brand content is meeting people wherever they're at in their relationship with you. By focusing on authenticity, engagement, and consistency across all content touchpoints, you'll create a cohesive and impactful personal brand journey. This alignment will amplify audience loyalty, advocacy, and perceived value, transforming every piece of content into a memorable, insightful experience that reflects you.
-
In this final module, you'll build out your own content systems to enable you to continue posting sustainably and create a comprehensive growth plan for your personal brand on LinkedIn. We'll set actionable goals for the immediate future, 3 months, and 6 months. By strategically developing your content and planning your growth trajectory, you'll ensure your personal brand's evolution is positioned for sustained success.
-
In this bonus module, you'll learn to confidently design visuals for LinkedIn based on the story that you're communicating. By understanding the psychology of design + visual storytelling, you'll develop content that accurately reflects your personal brand and your aesthetic.
-
To make sure you’re getting top-notch experts, I’ve invited some fellow creatives and friends that I love and trust to come speak on their areas of expertise!
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS
In Soft Launch, you have the support + guidance you need, every step of the way. Here’s what the initial six week sprint will look like:
📓 LIVE + INTERACTIVE TRAINING EVERY WEEK
Every week, we have a one-hour call that consists of a blend of training + group coaching. In each session, you learn a new element of how to launch your personal brand on LinkedIn.
✍️ WEEKLY GROUP CO-WRITING SESSIONS
It’s one thing to learn — but another to actually take action. Each week, you can join a group co-writing call to actually give yourself the space to write your posts + ask questions.
📹 1:1 FEEDBACK FROM NICOLE EVERY WEEK
As you progress through the program and complete your two weekly post prompts, Nicole provides written + video feedback every week to help you improve your writing.
😎 REGULAR CHALLENGES + BONUS CONTENT
Every other week, we host a mini-challenge to help you further develop your personal brand. Completing the bi-monthly challenges unlocks additional program bonus content!
🎯 WEEKLY LINKEDIN CONTENT PROMPTS
We don’t just learn in Soft Launch — we take action. Each week, you’re given two new content prompts for LinkedIn posts, to help you integrate wheat you learn in that week’s module.
🤓 MONTHLY GUEST TRAINING SESSIONS
Every month, we’ll have a guest training from an industry expert who will share additional insights + strategies to help you grow your personal brand.

*A CLIENT CALLED ME THIS AND IT STUCK !
Your Brand Translator*
FOUNDER OF FIVE TO NINE
I grew up living all over Europe, in environments where I often didn’t speak the same language as anyone else. Which meant that finding ways to translate my personality - without using my words - became an essential.
I know what it’s like to log into LinkedIn as a creative biz owner and feel alienated and overwhelmed! That’s why I created Soft Launch — to make the opportunities that exist on LinkedIn more accessible to creatives + create a sustainable, fluff-free personal brand toolkit for people to develop for themselves.

You’ve got questions — I’ve got answers
-
Each week during your six-week sprint, you'll receive two LinkedIn post prompts and resources as 'homework'. You can choose to write these in your own time, or join the weekly co-writing call. You are able to submit these each week by Friday 12PM (BST) for feedback (written + video!) from Nicole, to allow you to post your content on a rolling basis for the duration of the sprint.
-
For your investment, you get:
6 Live Group Trainings
6 Live Co-Writing Calls
6 Months of Content Access
3 surprise challenges and an always-on Community Hub in Slack
Weekly Post Submissions with 1:1 Loom Feedback from Nicole
Monthly Guest Expert Trainings
Special Perks Depending on payment options!
All trainings, slides and resources are recorded and stored in your dashboard on Thrivecart, so you can catch up at any point during your six-month access, or refresh your knowledge on specific topics as we move through each module.
-
Absolutely! We want this to be sustainable for you as you grow.
Payment Plans 👉 (Learn more)
The course fee is split up into four monthly payments, with the first payment due upon enrolment. You can select the 'Extended Payment Plan' at checkout, or contact Nicole directly (nicole@fivetoninecreative.com) to discuss alternative split pay options.
-
Nope, you're all good! While live sessions provide an opportunity for real-time interaction, all sessions will be recorded and stored in your student dashboard. This way, you can catch up in your own time, or come back to them - any time for the duration of your six-month course access.
-
Soft Launch is full of interactive elements! From weekly live group calls, to the co-writing sessions, to being able to submit your posts every week for direct feedback from Nicole, to an always-on community hub — it's all designed to foster engagement, support, and growth.
-
Whether you've been posting for a while (but without much of a strategy), or are only just starting to share content on LinkedIn, Soft Launch is tailored to help personal brands expand their footprint and voice on LinkedIn. The program focuses on education and sustainable action, making it perfect for those starting out and wanting to set a strong foundation. That being said - you'll get the most out of the program if you are ready and willing (albeit maybe a little nervous) about posting. This is what will give you the most real-time feedback on what works for you, and allow you to iterate and develop with Nicole's support. If you are definitely not ready to post, we recommend holding off on making this investment for now.
-
Absolutely! Soft Launch works for all businesses, at any stage. Whether you're a year old, or have been in your industry for a decade - the principles we teach are suitable for all levels of business. However, if you are not yet clear on your offer suite, you'll likely find some of the modules more challenging, as well as having a harder time articulating your POV. If this is you, we'd recommend holding off on this investment for now.
-
Due to the digital nature of the Soft Launch program, we don't offer refunds. Once access to any of the program content has been granted (which happens automatically once you check out), all sales are final. However, Nicole is here to guide you every step of the way, ensuring you get the most out of your investment.
-
While all trainings are recorded and available to you to afford you flexibility, Soft Launch isn't your typical passive program. It's deliberately hands-on and designed to give you the freedom to manage your own time and workflow, while still providing enough structure to hold you accountable.
